At this point, the next step for both of these bills should be a vote by the entire Senate in order to send them to the Governor’s desk, but instead, HB37 and HB43 are being unnecessarily…
There’s a lot to address regarding this road rage incident between a man and his wife and another motorist. Ultimately, it seems the victim was justified in drawing his gun, but a lot could have been done to potentially diffuse this situation.
